The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
We have sought to record changes in the condition of these pieces acquired after their initial manufacture.
An X-shaped hairline crack mostly visible inside the cup, with associated tiny losses along the lines inside the cup.
A minute surface nick under the rim's mouth rim.
A few enamel flakes inside the cup and to the saucer.
A star-hairline crack in the center of the saucer, visible under the base, and almost not visible to the naked eye to the decorated side.
Little wear to the enamels.
General age-related surface wear and minute firing faults as can be expected.
Please note this cup and saucer was displayed in a cabinet at the Palmer Family home, Hurst Grove, and appears in an old black and white photograph published in the catalogue.
